Kuzey Ege Denizi’nden (Türkiye) avlanan Sarı kuyruk istavrit balığının (Trachurus mediterraneus Steindachner, 1868) yeni bir maksimum boyu

Abstract

Bir ekosistem içindeki balık türlerinin maksimum boy, ağırlık ve yaş ile ilgili bilgilerinin bilinmesi türlerin popülasyon dinamiği ve stok değerlendirme çalışmaları için önem arz etmektedir. 36,9 cm total boya sahip bir adet sarı kuyruk istavrit balığı (Trachurus mediterraneus Steindachner, 1868) 12 Aralık 2018 tarihinde Saros Körfezi açıklarında ticari bir balıkçı tarafından olta ile yakalanmıştır. Bu ölçülen boy, Türkiye’nin Kuzey Ege kıyıları için türün maksimum uzunluğudur. Burada sunulan bilgilerin balıkçılık biyolojisine ve uluslararası bilimsel literatüre katkı sağlaması umulmaktadır.

A new maximum size of Mediterranean horse mackerel (Trachurus mediterraneus Steindachner, 1868) from Northern Aegean Sea (Turkey)

Abstract

Determining the information about the maximum size, weight and age of the fish species in an ecosystem is of significance for the population dynamics and stock evaluation studies of the fish species. A single specimen of Trachurus mediterraneus with 36.9 cm in total length was captured off Saros Bay with handline by a commercial fisherman on 12 December 2018. The mesaured length is maximum size record of species for Northern Aegean coasts of Turkey. The information presented here is hoped to contribute to fisheries biology and international scientific literature.
